Hi. I am a lunatic who can recite the entire dialogue from the
film. Out loud. In public places. Alone. Sweet! I also enjoy the
'game' where you shout out excitedly if you see someone from Flash
Gordon in another show. Here are my goddamned favourites: Flash himself
is in an episode of Baywatch where a plane crashes and that idiot kid is
in the plane and that lifeguard lady who looks like somebody's mum is in
the plane too i think and Flash is a coward or a Bad Man or something
and he has Brown Hair. Dr Zarkov was in an episode of SeaQuest DSV (not
that I watch that, of course) as, wait for it, a Crazy Scientist and in
a James bond film where they climb a mountain and shoot people with
crossbows. Ming is in Judge Dredd, the Exorcist, and some film about
blind people who wear special glasses in the future that I rented on
video because it had cool motorcycles on the back of the box. Oh, and
he's in some famous film where he plays chess with the grim reaper or
something. In fact, Ming pops up all over the damn place, but is fairly
hard to spot as for some reason he neglects to wear his beard or
skullcap in any other films. Munson AKA William Hootkins AKA The Fat Man
Who is in Everything, is, well, in everything, if you look hard enough
(Star Wars, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Superman IV, Batman, Hardware, Dust
Devil, um...Biggles). He is truly mighty. Remember kids, fat americans CAN be
cool.
